Hi Stuart,

At 4 weeks into your playing I would suspect that you are still spending a lot of time working on your basic strokes.

The great thing about Table Tennis is that you can play it for a very long time till a very old age.  There are world, state and local competitions for over 80s.  That gives you a good 50 years to work on your game!

It's important to take the initiative in a rally. My old coach used to call this forcing the pace. To get better at forcing the pace, we are going to consciously go for more power on our third ball shots. We may miss a few more balls but that is part of our development.
